| Sarwar | Is not the fact (that the Israelite scholars already knew about the Quran through their Book) sufficient evidence for the pagans of the truthfulness (of the Quran)? |

| JM Rodwell | Was it not a sign to them that the learned among the children of Israel recognised it? |
| Asad | Is it not evidence enough for them [I.e., for those who disbelieve in the prophethood of Muhammad.] that [so many] learned men from among the children of Israel have recognized this [as true]? [Sc., "and in consequence have become Muslims": for instance, Abd Allah ibn Salam, Kab ibn Malik and other learned Jews of Medina in the lifetime of the Prophet. Kab al-Ahbar the Yemenite and a number of his compatriots during the reign of Umar, and countless others throughout the world who embraced Islam in the course of centuries. The reason why only learned Jews and not learned Christians as well are spoken of in this context lies in the fact that - contrary to the Torah, which still exists, albeit in a corrupted form - the original revelation granted to Jesus has been lost (see 3:4) and cannot, therefore, be cited in evidence of the basic identity of his teachings with those of he Quran.] |
